Philosophy

The approach to education at Jubilee is built upon a foundation of respect for children as:

  • learners who are innately curious about the world around them;
  • thinkers with important ideas who use logic, reason and intuition to make sense of their world;
  • artists whose creative instincts need to be encouraged and developed;
  • spiritual/moral beings who need the freedom to express their spirituality, and to weigh the complexities of moral decisions; both their own, and those of others;
  • individuals with their own perspectives, strengths, weaknesses, interests and approaches to the world;
  • members of a community whose history and culture is the central starting place for their study of the world;
  • builders and decision‑makers with a responsibility to their families, their school community, their larger community and the world.
